I know this is a bit of a cheat exercise but my dad has one in his house so i sometimes use it on a Tuesday.

I was wondering if you could count this as your excercise as 10minutes on the machine is supposed to be like an hour in the gym, or if anyone knows how much calories it burns.

If you dont know what flabelos is, its the vibrating plate machine which you stand on which shakes you madly.

Thanks.

    I doubt it would be like an hour at the gym, because your really not doing anything but shaking, if anything, go on their website and see if there is anything about it like "10 minutes on this burns ____ Calories!" or some cheesy line like that.
    My friends mum has one and she said it doesnt really work, unless your doing lundges or squats on it or something :/

    FLABeLOS works by "telling" the brain that you are unbalanced and therefor the muscles contract involuntarily. The frequency of the machine is set at the best level to have the greatest affect on muscles. Therefor exercise on the plate isn't necessary as with the powerplate that works in a totally different way. Check out www.flabelosuk.co.uk their web site tells all!
    I have lost 17 inches using on in my local tanning salon :-)
